Punta Arbella from Campidaglio

Signs indicating the start of the trail are found on the wall of an old house upon entering the hamlet. Then go straight up and, having reached a first grassy plateau, head towards a low building on the edge of the woods where the power line arrives. The path then continues uphill through the woods, reaches the Lumberto houses (pass between the two buildings) and continues to Pian Russa (here the Fraternali map is inaccurate, but the red marks are clear). Then follow the path that leads to Alpe Nivolaj. 

After passing the huts, the path continues diagonally to the slope and reaches the ridge shared with the Ribordone valley. Then climb the crest and shortly after you reach the junction with the path coming up from Frachiamo. Keep right and continue climbing until you reach the Colmetto huts. From here you begin to see the cross of the subpeak: once you reach that point continue for a few hundred meters until the true summit.

The descent is along the ascent route.

Non-slip sole footwear is recommended, wind/rain protection, a warm layer, hat and sunglasses.

There are no refreshment points along the route, so you need to stock up on water and food.

From Pont Canavese, follow the provincial road of the Soana valley, just before the tunnel turn sharply left (signs for Lutta, Poetti, Monte Arbella). Pass all the hamlets and arrive at Campidaglio where the road ends.

At the end of the road or just before the hamlet Campidaglio
